Maapam Jacob

A one-of-a-kind, hand-embroidered wall tapestry. 600 hours of work. Maapam Jacob is a tribute to masculinity in all its facets: grandfather, father, husband, artist, and child. Seen through the eyes of a child, it reveals the strength of its structure and the delicacy of its details. Entirely hand-embroidered, this piece weaves rigid blue geometric lines—like the trajectories of life—straight, broken, and repeated—evoking the rigor, repetition, and persistence of the gesture. Inlaid abstract masks bear his hallmark: wisdom, discipline, and devotion to art. A unique tapestry where strength and fragility meet, reflecting the complexity of the male condition.
